Default ..New Hubcaps for 06....

Looks great. I wish I had your volume ****. Hubcaps are a new style for 06.
However, I respectfully request that you remove the dealer sticker. Debadge or do not debadge, that is up to you, but you must peel off that decal.

What mods have you got in mind?

Yeah I asked not to have the sticker on there, but it seems to be there any ways I will try to take it off when I have time. I already have $1,600 in parts waiting to be installed. Because of this soon to be bad weather, they got me working 12 hour shifts to get are birds up & gone from here. When I have the time the things I have I will install.

Precision Muffler Exhaust.
Scion FX Strut Bar.
YDR Intake.
Center Line 17x7 Wheels.
Falken Racing 215/40R17 Tires.
One Ton Garage Rear Shims.
Carbon Fiber Spoiler.
A group of stickers

I think thats all I have for it, for now. I might not be able to get around to do anything until sunday or monday it seems

You fooled me AGAIN chucksu. 1st I thought you were getting an xB, then you responded somwhere that made it sound like you where getting an xA so I figured you ordered an xA, and after all that, you have an xB. Nice.....

Congrats on your new ride.

It was in fact after the test drive of the two. The xB just seemed like so much more car. Now that I have it, its a good thing to. Im not sure if I would have been able to get all four wheels + tires in the back of a xA & been able to see still. I love the shifter on the xB to. Its lite years a head of the one that was in my focus. I can go through the gears no problem, dont need to worry if its going to really go into gear or make me think it did. The shift **** could be a little better, but that will be changed in time.

That will come when I get some time. They dont want me working on my car in the parking lot, so I need to find some place where I can do some simple work on the thing. I also got to get some time when there is still some day light out to do these things.

You'll find yourself waking up in the middle of the night to get up and take it for a drive. I did. Oh, the excitement.

Congrats! Another happy Florida owner.

I installed my armrest and removed dthe xB badge on its first trip into the car port.
I'm still deciding on the Scion logo off the back.

I'd recommend putting a few good layers of wax on it as w/ the rain bands we had, it left spots on my xB so I had the dealership wash it and it rained less then 5 minutes after I left. Also, if you rain-x the windows, you may not even need the wipers.

Back to the topic though, congrats and enjoy!!!!

This sucks. So my shift cheif lets me go home early (still on call though) but at least I get off early. So I rush over to the auto hobby shop & see the sign say they close at 1700. I was all like yes, then one of the guys there asked me what I needed to do & I told him install a muffler & intake. He said "no" because they where closing @ 4 today & tomorrow & they are not open on mondays. So they can just set on my middle finger & rotate. Its not my fault I have to work 12s while they can get a way with 8 hours or less So the only thing I have been able to do to my car so far, is take of the dealer sticker. Now I need to find something that I can use to take the badges off.
